Dylan recoiled from the shock of light, but all he felt was a strange sort of…rage. It filled him like nothing had before. He shouted, incapable of doing much else. He stumbled back, landing on his rear. Strangely, he could still see fine, minus the tears welling up from the pain.
Vaughn’s vision cleared a moment later and he groaned, blinking his eyes a few time. He rubbed at his temples with one hand and inhaled sharply.
Avery saw the blinding light, but she was in too much pain to do anything about it. She started to see stars, then those stars turned to spots of darkness.
"Dylan," she whispered, just as the black spots took over the rest of her vision, and she was taken over by blessed darkness.
( Both girls are knocked out? whoops! I'll just make E go on some spiritual journey and figure out information on The Flame; you can leave her alone for a while XD )
(Lol. Ok.)
(I totally didn't even realize that… Whoops…)
Element stood in a large field, with billions of stars overhead. It was like she was staring at her Galaxy from another planet. Maybe… Element started to run. She ran and ran, and felt tears pool in her eyes when she came to a stop in front of a waterfall. She covered her mouth with her hand, and dropped to her knees.
Dylan shook his arm, trying to clear the pain from it. He slowly got to his feat, noticing the man he had blinded.
He felt anger then, but was worried more for Avery, who (is still a lion?) was lying unconcious on the ground. He shadow-formed a hand, rising up from the ground to lift her gently and sent it back to the car, thinking out the process in code. It had been a useful skill to learn but basing it off human code still limited exactly what he could do. Still, it was more useful than learning without a basis.
He then turned his attention to the man who had shot her, instinct screaming to freaking kick him or something. He cleared the thought from his head best he could and offered his own hand to the man, trying to get him to his feet.
(I think I forgot that Avery was a lion… It's early for me… Uh, she's not supposed to be a lion, so… We'll say that she changed back after she blacked out.)
( look at you being respectful Dylan! )
As she stared at the waterfall, she saw somebody come out from a cave behind it. It was her brother. She shrieked and ran to him, wrapping him up in the tightest hug she could even imagine. He was so tall… She missed him so much. He was laughing, and hugging her back.
"Hello there Bumble Bee." He whispered into her ear.
(Oh, cute!)
( I try… )
Vaughn glared skeptically up at the man then took his hand, getting up slowly. “She jumped in front of the gun, you should get her to a hospital. I was trying to shoot someone else…” he said, breathless.
(To make this less confusing, I'm just going to say right now that this is a dream.)
"Avery," a voice whispered through the darkness.
"Avery."
"Avery, it's me, Thea," the voice turned into one that was familiar, and Avery finally opened her eyes.
Her best friend, Thea Lane, stood before her in the living room of their shared apartment. Sunlight streamed through the windows all around, lighting up the entire room in a bright golden-yellow. Avery sat up from her position on the couch and looked around in confusion.
"Where am I?" she asked, turning to Thea.
Thea smiled and responded, "You're home, goofball."
"Yeah, but I was just…" Avery's voice trailed off as she wondered if Thea would even believe her.
"Just what?" her friend coaxed.
"In the woods."
Thea gave her a strange look. "Uh, no. You've been here the whole time."
"What?" exclaimed Avery. "But… No. No, this isn't real."
"You are correct," said Thea. Except, this time, it wasn't Thea's voice. It was a voice Avery hadn't heard in a long time. Thea's body stretched and changed, growing into the body of the voice. Avery ran to her, embracing her tightly.
"Momma?" Avery choaked. "But you… You're… And Daddy, too…"
"I know, sweetheart, but I have an important message to deliver to you. Remember this: Where the sun rises, there the stars fall."
"What? Momma, what does that mean?"
"I'm sorry, baby girl, but I can't tell you. You and your friends have to figure that out on your own."
"But how?!?"
"Goodbye, my dear," Avery's mother said as she disappeared, and Avery was thrown back into darkness.
(Oh, Avery's parents died, just so everyone knows…)
( HEY! So did E's! TWINZZZ XD )
(Lol! But that's so sad!)
( Well I guess… Lol! E's parents were abusive. Her brother was her REAL Parent. )
Element pulled away from her brother. "Am I dead, Ben?" she whispered. Ben smiled.
"No, Bumble Bee. But your hurt real bad. I came her to save you from the pain while you wake up. But your not dead." He said gently. Element hung her head. She almost wished she was dead. All this stuff with The Flame, it was stressful. And then she had to find Avery and Dylan, and that stupid man that wouldn't tell her anything.
"Ben, I really don't know if I wanna wake up." She whispered, and Ben sighed.
"I know. But Bumble Bee, you save lives. You do things that no one could ever dream of. You know things that humans can't even comprehend. They need you, Ari." He said, putting his hands on her shoulders.
Dylan gave him a cold stare, "Save it. Come with me, and I may not rip tour arms off. Even if it takes me all day, you bet your ass I will."

“A mother and her child will die in about fifteen minutes from now if I go with you. You need to let me do my job if you don’t want that blood on your hands,” Vaughn snapped, his fists clenched. “Whatever the hell you want from me, you can find me later in the abandoned gas station just outside of town.”
Ari looked up. "They killed you Ben. How could you have so much pity on them?" she asked. Ben smiled weakly.
"Because not all of them are bad." He said. Ari smiled.
"I guess your right. But Ben, I have another problem." She said, and she pulled him to the ground so that they were both sitting in the grass, legs crossed and facing each other. "Can you tell me anything about The Flame?" Ari asked. Ben's eyes filled with fire.
"Why do you need to know about The Flame? Whats going on?" he asked.
"They're rising again." Ari said gravely.
( in Captain America voice "LANGUAGE" )
😂😂😂 (I loved that part of the movie!)
(A'right. Someone needs to wake Avery up. Shake her, say her name, or whatever. cough-cough Dylan cough-cough ;P Lol, jk. It doesn't really matter; I'll just wake her up myself of no one else does.)
Dylan about snapped, a dagger in his voice again, "I care not for their petty lives! You have hell to pay!" He was about to strike him down right there, but a small bit of concious horror held him back. He stepped back.
I am not right in the head at all.
He struggled internally for a minute, then resolved himself, "I"m coming with you."
